Entry 120: 1 John 2:9
Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. 1 John 2:9. He lived what he spoke and spoke what he lived. "Congruence" the best word I can come up with. Practicing what you preach or walking the talk. Do our lives and words simply match up? Incongruence leaves us blind. Living closely aligned to God. Allowing the light of his word to illuminate our paths keeps us from living blind. Result is a Godly vision that gives clarity and focus to our days. When our words and actions match up. When others observe this. Impression not necessarily of someone who knows everywhere they're going. But of someone who clearly knows who they're following. In what ways does the word congruence describe you? How can you grow to live a more consistent life? Jesus, I want my words and actions to match up. Times I fall short. But my desire is to grow more consistent each day. Help me please. So that everyone is listening and watching my life will be drawn to you.
